Did he really say that?

The kind of humor I like is the thing that makes me laugh for five seconds and think for ten minutes = GEORGE CARLIN...Stained glass, engraved glass, frosted glass–give me plain glass = JOHN FOWLES...Music is the mathematics of the gods = PYTHAGORAS...Nothing is more fluid than language = R.L.SWIHART

Public Melody #1 (1937)




YouTube is youtiful
When you find a pearl
That begins with a singing girl

She sings with soul
And what is neat:
She’s accompanied by
One thousand happy feet

They minimize danger
And optimize fun
When trumpet combats gun
In Public Melody #1

Louis Armstrong & Martha Raye star in this six minute film clip but
more than fifty credited performers appear in Artists and Models.


Another clip features artists, models, and Jack Benny.
One of the artists is referred to as the "original surrealist."



Blogger's Note
The 1937 Paramount film title was recycled verbatim--by the same studio--in 1955.
